Sparked by a memorable tasting while working in hospitality, the owner began building his collection in 2015. The bottles were primarily acquired through LCBO Vintages monthly cellar offerings, with select additions from the SAQ and reputable auctions. Transported in temperature-controlled vehicles from the point of purchase, the collection has been stored in a professional facility, Fine Wine Reserve.

This is the tasting note for 2006 Krug Vintage Brut Champagne from Robert Parker - As I reported when it was released, Krug's 2006 Brut is clearly one of the vintage's highlights. Offering up aromas of dried fruits, pear, freshly baked bread, caramelized apples, honeycomb and toasted sourdough, it's full-bodied, deep and layered, with superb concentration, racy acids and an impressively tightly wound profile for this demonstrative vintage. I observed last year that this is surprisingly reserved for the vintage, and if anything, that quality is even more in evidence today. While many 2006 Champagnes are likely to be at their best in their demonstrative youth, this is one wine unquestionably built for the long haul.
